Not gonna lie, the first year was rough. But once you find your neighborhood and your people, it exceeded my expectations. Your mileage may vary depending on what you're looking for..

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 13 years ago from Phoenix and here's my honest breakdown:
Housing: Older homes are where the value is. We're paying /mo for a 2-bed in Lakewood. It's hit or miss for what you get.
Jobs: The market is affordable right now, especially in healthcare. If you're in marketing you might struggle.
People: Generally pretty good. It took about 15 months to build a solid friend group.
Food: challenging. Tons of options if you like BBQ.
Good luck with whatever you decide..

Came here for school and stayed because I genuinely enjoy living here. The weather is honestly decent and I don't see that changing anytime soon.

Weather-wise, the summers are challenging and winters are wild. You get used to it after the first year.

Public transit is average here. You'll probably need a car for most things. it exceeded my expectations.
